Technology

This site runs on a foundation of open-source software:

• Ubuntu Linux — the server operating system
• Apache — the web server
• PHP — the language the whole stack runs on
• MariaDB — the database
• Memcached — in-memory object caching
• PdoFish2 — the database ORM
• Google Authenticator — PHP implementation of TOTP-based two-factor authentication
• Parsedown — Markdown parsing
• Font Awesome — icons

It also relies on a few closed-source, custom PHP libraries built specifically for this project, the oh-so-cleverly titled: Conduit, Plunger, and Divisions.

This site lives inside the UMbase source repository alongside allthings.umphreys.com, umbase.umphreys.com, madlove.umphreys.com, and band internal tools.

It was created by a human, with a healthy dose of AI assistance. All code was either written by, or reviewed by, a person at some point in the chain.
